ARIZONA HOUSING COALITION

As a collaborative association, we lead the efforts to end homelessness and advocate for safe, affordable homes for all Arizonans.

The Arizona Veterans StandDown Alliance (AVSA) is a program of the Arizona Housing Coalition which holds annual events and resource fairs in 13 of Arizona’s 15 counties, including the nation's largest event of it's kind, the annual Maricopa County StandDown. These StandDown events and resource fairs allow veterans and their families who are experiencing housing instability and homelessness to get and stay connected to supportive services. StandDowns are held in different counties throughout Arizona with the largest, serving 1,250 veterans and their families at the 2024 Maricopa County StandDown.
